Better call Saul spoiler thread

Post your thoughts/spoilers here!

I reeeeally liked last night's episode. The sequence at the courthouse was just so well done. I also liked the tone of the episode- very, very dry humor mixed with no win situations. I hope they're done with the twins. I think they're pretty lame.

I watch the first episode and really liked it. I loved how they showed him now, I can't wait to watch last night episode tonight.

I really like this show so far!! I'm curious to see how this plays out with the drug dealer...obv. we know he gets involved at some level because we know how it "ends". I also love all the scenes with Mike.

I've only watched a handful of BB episodes, but my husband had at his on last night and I found myself liking it. I thought it was really well done!

All of this. I to, I'm really going to like this show. And I loved seeing Mike again. I missed him in my life. 

I KNOW! Me too. I wish I could re-write the future for him (Mike)....

[cheshirecat]

I really love the way they are showing his struggle with crime and violence. After the first two episodes, I am hooked.

[daometjing]

I like it a lot, so far. I'm very intrigued to find out what is going on with Mike. Is he working for Gus yet and using the parking attendant as a cover? If not, how does that all come about? It will also be interesting to see the evolution of Jimmy/Saul.

[sirhiss]

I also love that we will get to see his relationship with Mike develop.

I wonder if we get enough seasons, will they replay (and fast forward) the BB stuff? Or will we just fast travel to the Cinnabon-manager "Saul"? (I couldn't see his name on his nametag to see what name he's going by there.)

[bennieangel]

ALSO, do we know how Chuck is related to Jimmy? Or what his deal is??

MH thinks they're brothers but I'm not convinced (and maybe I missed the clues). He's c-r-a-z-y.

They are brothers. He's suffering from electromagnetic sensitivity, probably imagined. It appears to be mental illness.

[daometjing]

I saw an interview with Vince Gilligan. He says they are brothers.

[daometjing]

Also, Jesse's dad is listed as a character on IMDB. Can't wait to see how that is integrated into the show.

Aaaahhhhh I can't wait!

I am trying really hard but there's so much pressure, being a spinoff of BB, which is one of the greatest shows of all time. I like it so far but I feel like my expectations are really high.

I think everyone's expectations are high. Hopefully VG knows that it has to live up to expectations...

[ericalee27]

I seriously loved episode 2!! Love seeing other BB characters in the mix. The desert scene had me cracking up and cringing at the same time

[moidonna]

I did like it, but it moved a little slow at first. I definitely want to continue watching and love the BB references!

[shelly923]

I thought it was amazballs ! The scene of the boys in the morgue was so fucking sick though !

[theseaword]

Episode 3 was...good. I was entertained. It moved the plot along. I would say it was plot-tastic. It was my least favorite so far as I saw all the "twists" coming and there were no really neat segments or scenes that stand out in my mind.

[moidonna]

I keep running behind. I can't wait to see what's in store!

[Cherhorowitz]

I agree theseaword, I thought last night was meh, okay.

Loving the show so far. Annoyed that they mess with the geography of Albuquerque like they did in BB -- you cannot get to the Bosque from the Sandia foothills (the family is clearly camping among cottonwood trees along the river, not the pine forest of the top and backside of the Sandias. But I suppose the US Forest Service wouldn't allow them to film in the Manzanos either since the Sandias are a wilderness area.

Note for fans without cable but with Netflix: get the chrome extension Hola and switch to the UK or Ireland for your country.

This is not something I would know.

Yeah, it's a NM knowledge thing, but still a goof. I guess people outside the state would be surprised by the amount of forest in NM.

Is the thing that's going on with Chuck for real? Or in his head?

Also I never got the s'all good man! Reference when watching breaking bad. So clever!

Well, I think he's really sick. But I think it's a mental illness. That's my perception.

[mamahodge]

I was super excited to know there was a spin off but skeptical about how it would turn out.. It's great! The story is so believable to make his character who it is in BB. And I agree MiKe is the shit!
